How Our Experienced Defense Lawyer Evaluates a Weapons Charge
Firearms charges in the Jacksonville area frequently stem from routine law enforcement contact along highly traveled local routes, including Western Boulevard, Marine Boulevard, and the US-17 bypass.
Drivers stopped by the Jacksonville Police Department, the Onslow County Sheriff's Office, or the State Highway Patrol often face charges of carrying a concealed weapon if a handgun is discovered tucked under a seat, inside a console, or within a glove compartment without a valid permit.
Our legal review includes looking at the exact positioning of the firearm and the legal validity of the initial stop, evaluating whether local officers exceeded their authority or conducted an unconstitutional vehicle sweep during the encounter.
Weapons offenses cover a wide range of situations. Some involve allegations of unlawful possession, while others are connected to drug offenses, assault allegations, or prior felony convictions.
We carefully review the available evidence to determine whether the prosecution can prove every element of the charge. Questions involving possession, ownership, knowledge, or the surrounding circumstances deserve closer examination before assumptions are made about the strength of the state's case.

Mr. Wilkie literally saved my family.
- Cody M."The first thing Mr. Wilkie will tell you is that “no one will out-work me”. That is an understatement. He took my case on short notice, and after three years of dealing with the prospect of life-altering charges, he presented an effective case that showed the jury the facts, despite the best efforts of the state to paint me in a negative light.
Mr. Wilkie literally saved my family, and I cannot express how thankful I am to have trusted him."
